For some time now, fans have been concerned that Rey could join the dark side of the Force by the end of The Last Jedi and those fears were only heightened when the latest trailer for the film suggested that the young heroine might align with the villainous Kylo Ren.

An additional TV spot has also been released featuring new footage, including a brief exchange between Luke Skywalker and an evidently foul-mouthed R2-D2.

In Lucasfilm’s Star Wars: The Last Jedi, the Skywalker saga continues as the heroes of The Force Awakens join the galactic legends in an epic adventure that unlocks age-old mysteries of the Force and shocking revelations of the past.

One of the biggest criticisms about the previous Star Wars canon, now dubbed Legends, is that ancillary material never connected. Since Disney has taken over and the establishment of the Star Wars Story Group, that has all changed. The modus operandi has been to have everything connect but not in an intrusive way– one that feels more natural to reward the more hardcore fans as well as to intrigue new fans.
